Fixed-Point Toolbox 3.0

Floating-to-Fixed-Point Conversion

Fixed-Point Toolbox provides analysis tools for efficiently converting a design from floating-point to fixed-point representation. The data logging tools let you record minimum and maximum data values and pinpoint when overflow and underflow occur during fixed-point operations. The data-type override tools let you analyze a fixed-point algorithm by switching the data type of variables between floating-point and fixed-point. With this analysis, you can observe the dynamic range of variables involved in your MATLAB code and ensure that the algorithm behaves consistently in floating-point and fixed-point representations.
